Benny has performed at skating events all over the nation to raise funds for charity and help kids with autism. "He'll just run on the ice whenever he wants and skate around after me and chase me and so he really does like it," Benny's owner Cheryl Delsangro said. He is also the recipient of the American Kennel Club Exemplary Companion Award for the goodwill he inspires in everyone he meets.
